Canadian producer Jay Tripwire has been consistently top-notch tech house and deep house since the turn of the millennium, with a prolific output that has graced dozens of quality imprints. Although varied in his output, he can usually be counted on to serve up a slick groove with just the right amount of atmospheric texture. And it just so happens that when we contacted him, he was readying the release of a very tasty improvised live set—which we naturally pounced upon. Blending elements of electro, dub, deep techno, ambient and breakbeat, it’s seriously diverse mix.
*How would you describe your sound?*
Future music for final days. I am DJ who plays a lot of different stuff, I think of music as good or bad, not genres or labels or shit like that. I tend to have a lot of science-fiction futuristic elements that are like Woody Allen’s interpretation of the future in the ‘60s (if that run on sentence makes any sense whatsoever). I have no idea what I am doing to be honest, or what the sound is. It’s shit from the heart. Some things resonate with people, some things might be too out there, I don't care.
*What and who inspires you and influences your sound?*
Music is from the cosmos, you just channel it from the source. We’re just conduits in the true sense of art and vision. I am inspired by Kraftwerk, Underground Resistance, Vangelis, Moroder, Wu-Tang, Slayer, Doc Martin, Mr. C, dub and reggae and the really underground Italo disco records from the late-’70s into the ‘80s.I like obscure rock, synth polka and backwards spoken word. I'm inspired by 27-year-old sandwiches living in tupperware. I used to really like to listen to radio stations in between stations to hear the secret FREQuencies. If I wasn't doing music they woulda locked me up in a rubber room with a box of crayons a long ass time ago.
*Can you tell us a little about this mix and what it means to you?*
It’s me remixing myself in a live PA format, I wanted to do something that is really genre-less. Is it house? Is it Techno? Is it ‘80s electro? Who the fuck knows. "It is what it is". I sketched it with the listener in mind instead of a club or warehouse rave.
